Diamond Rio – How Your Love Makes Me Feel Lyrics
I’m no poet and I know it
I don’t use five dollar words
This might not sound like much compared
To all the pretty things you’ve heard
But here’s how I’d explain it
Since you brought it up
It won’t sound like anybody else’s version of love
It’s like just before dark, jump in the car
Buy an ice cream and see how far
We can drive before it melts kinda feeling
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
There’s a cow in the road and you swerve to the left
Fate skips a beat and it scares you to death
And you laugh until you cry
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
It might not be suitable
For greeting cards and such
It’s a true and honest feeling
And if you feel it half as much
We could go through life together
Without a worry or a care
Knowing deep down in our hearts
That we’ve got something special here
It’s like just before dark, jump in the car
Buy an ice cream and see how far
We can drive before it melts kinda feeling
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
There’s a cow in the road and you swerve to the left
Fate skips a beat and it scares you to death
And you laugh until you cry
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
I have always heard that you can’t put love into words
It’s like just before dark, jump in the car
Buy an ice cream and see how far
We can drive before it melts kinda feeling
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
There’s a cow in the road and you swerve to the left
Fate skips a beat and it scares you to death
And you laugh until you cry
That’s how your love makes me feel inside
GENIUS
